London shopper criticized for hoarding cinnamon buns

A woman named Nneka from London is facing backlash for buying dozens of cinnamon buns from Tesco. The sweet treat, which costs £3.75 each, is a new item in the store. In a TikTok video, Nneka proudly shows herself filling her basket with at least ten of the buns. As she was shopping, another customer asked her to save one. Nneka agreed to give her one but kept the rest for herself. The video has become popular online, attracting over 715,000 views. Many viewers criticized Nneka for taking so many buns, calling her actions greedy. People commented on social media, questioning why anyone would need so many cinnamon buns. Some said it was ridiculous and expressed frustration that they had been unable to find any. Tesco promotes the buns as a delightful treat that can be enjoyed hot or cold. Additionally, a Tesco employee shared information about self-scan trolleys. They revealed that the store randomly checks customers, but this is often based on specific behaviors, like frequently picking up and putting down items without scanning. This practice is meant to prevent theft.
